Mako will be the tallest, fastest and longest coaster in Orlando, according to SeaWorld.

The coaster will be 200-feet tall and reach speeds of 73 mph on a 4,760-foot steel track.

It is modeled after the mako shark, one of the fastest sharks in the ocean, known for its ability to make big jumps and quickly change course.

Riders will experience tall hills, high speeds and a feeling of weightlessness on steep drops, SeaWorld says. The ride will be accompanied by a sound track with musical elements that change as the ride goes through different areas.

Mako will be manufactured by Bolliger & Mabillard, the same company that created SeaWorld’s Manta and Kraken, and Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s SheiKra.

Mako will be part of a shark-themed plaza, including Shark Encounter, Sharks Underwater Grill, shops, shark and shipwreck theming and educational experiences featuring sharks.
